- lucb1e 2y agoZstd is a personal project? Surely it's not by accident in the Facebook GitHub organization? And that you need to sign a contract on code.facebook.com before they'll consider merging any contributions? That seems like an odd claim, unless it used to be a personal project and Facebook took it over (https://github.com/facebook/zstd/blob/dev/CONTRIBUTING.md#contributor-license-agreement-cla https://github.com/facebook/zstd/blob/dev/CONTRIBUTING.md#co...)
